Things I learned this week

I learned a lot this week about my grade 9s, the most connected generation the world has ever seen. They can work their iPods and cell phones with their eyes closed, in the dark, under water, while watching TV and eating a sandwich...yet these students cannot email an attachment, save data on a USB stick, or figure out PowerPoint. I take it for granted that they know these things considering how connected they are. So, back to basics in the modern age... :)
